Silvercrest Asset Management continued strong organic growth in both its core family wealth business and institutional business during the third quarter ended September 30, 2016. Silvercrest added $216 million in newly committed client accounts and assets, one of the best quarters for organic business development since the first quarter of 2014. New business was generated equally by both the ultra-high net worth and institutional businesses. We remain proud of Silvercrest's ability to maintain its history of organic growth.

Strong investment performance during the third quarter contributed additional growth of $456 million in discretionary assets. Combined with Silvercrest's organic growth, during the third quarter, discretionary assets increased approximately $660 million to $13.2 billion as of September 30, 2016, a 12% year-over-year increase in discretionary assets under management. The firm has continued its growth while maintaining its fee basis for assets under management and margins, and while investing in the business

Importantly, Silvercrest's proprietary value equity strategies have maintained their strong performance. Each of the firm's six primary equity strategies have outperformed their relevant benchmarks for nearly all measured periods, as well as since inception.

We remain focused on finding selective and prudent acquisitions in money-center cities, and we believe Silvercrest's growth, culture and premier brand in the fast-growing RIA business, makes it a desirable business partner. We remain optimistic about complementing our organic growth with accretive acquisitions to add professional talent and to broaden our high net worth network of clients.

On November 2, 2016, the Company's Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.12 per share of Class A common stock. The dividend will be paid on or about December 16, 2016 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on December 9, 2016.

1 Adjusted measures are non-GAAP measures and are explained and reconciled to the comparable GAAP measures in Exhibits 2 and 3.

2 We have computed average AUM by averaging AUM at the beginning of the applicable period and AUM at the end of the applicable period.

3 Adjusted basic and diluted earnings per share measures for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 are based on the number of shares of Class A common stock and Class B common stock outstanding as of September 30, 2016. Adjusted diluted earnings per share are further based on the addition of unvested restricted stock units to the extent dilutive at the end of the reporting period.

AUM at $17.9 billion

Silvercrest's discretionary assets under management increased by $1.4 billion, or 11.9%, to $13.2 billion at September 30, 2016 from $11.8 billion at September 30, 2015. Silvercrest's total AUM increased by $0.3 billion, or 1.7%, to $17.9 billion at September 30, 2016 from $17.6 billion at September 30, 2015. The increase in total AUM was attributable to market appreciation of $1.0 billion, partially offset by net client outflows of $0.7 billion.

Silvercrest's discretionary assets under management increased by $0.6 billion, or 4.8%, to $13.2 billion at September 30, 2016 from $12.6 billion at June 30, 2016. Silvercrest's total AUM increased by $0.7 billion, or 4.1%, to $17.9 billion at September 30, 2016 from $17.2 billion at June 30, 2016. The increase in total AUM was attributable to market appreciation of $0.5 billion and net client inflows of $0.2 billion.

Our total assets under management exclude approximately $14.8 billion of non-discretionary assets of a public treasurers' office for which we became advisor in connection with the acquisition of Jamison, Eaton & Wood, Inc. (the "Jamison acquisition"), which closed on June 30, 2015. Silvercrest provides advisory services to this office with a fee cap of $825 thousand per annum. We exclude these assets because they are related to a unique client relationship for which the fee cap is significantly disproportionate to the related assets under management. This fee arrangement is not indicative of our average fee rate.

Third Quarter 2016 vs. Third Quarter 2015

Revenue increased by $0.5 million, or 2.6%, to $20.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016, from $20.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015. This increase was driven primarily by growth in our management and advisory fees as a result of increased assets under management and by growth in our family office services fees mainly as a result of the acquisition of Cappiccille & Company LLC (the "Cappiccille Acquisition"), which closed on January 11, 2016. Revenue related to the Cappiccille Acquisition for the three months ended September 30, 2016 was $0.1 million.

Total expenses increased by $0.6 million, or 3.9%, to $16.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 from $15.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015. Compensation and benefits expense increased by $0.6 million, or 5.4%, to $12.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 from $11.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in equity-based compensation of $0.3 million due to the granting of restricted stock units in August 2015 and May 2016, an increase in salaries expense of $0.2 million primarily as a result of both merit-based increases and increased headcount due to the Cappiccille Acquisition and an increase in the accrual for bonuses of $0.1 million. General and administrative expenses remained flat at $4.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015.

Consolidated net income was $2.9 million. Net income attributable to Silvercrest was $1.5 million, or $0.19 per basic and diluted share for the three months ended September 30, 2016. Our Adjusted Net Income1 was $2.6 million, or $0.20 per adjusted basic share and $0.19 per adjusted diluted share3 for the three months ended September 30, 2016.

Adjusted EBITDA1 was $5.9 million or 28.8% of revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to $5.8 million or 28.8% of revenue for the same period in the prior year.

Revenue increased by $3.1 million, or 5.6%, to $59.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, from $55.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. This increase was driven primarily by growth in our management and advisory fees as a result of increased assets under management mainly as a result of the Jamison Acquisition, and by growth in our family office services fees mainly as a result of the Cappiccille Acquisition. Revenue related to the Jamison Acquisition for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 was $3.8 million and $1.4 million, respectively. Revenue related to the Cappiccille Acquisition for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 was $0.4 million.

Total expenses increased by $4.8 million, or 11.3%, to $47.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 from $42.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. Compensation and benefits expense increased by $3.7 million, or 11.5%, to $35.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 from $31.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in the accrual for bonuses of $0.4 million, an increase in benefits costs of $0.2 million, an increase in equity-based compensation of $1.7 million due to the granting of restricted stock units in August 2015 and May 2016 and an increase in salaries expense of $1.4 million primarily as a result of both merit-based increases and increased headcount due to the Jamison and Cappiccille acquisitions. General and administrative expenses increased by $1.2 million, or 10.7%, to $12.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 from $11.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. This increase was primarily due to an increase in investment research costs of $0.2 million, mainly as a result of the Jamison Acquisition, an increase in sub-advisory and referral fees of $0.4 million due to the Jamison Acquisition, an increase in client reimbursements of $0.1 million, an increase in business taxes of $0.1 million, an increase in telephone expenses of $0.1 million and an increase in depreciation and amortization of $0.3 million due primarily to intangibles acquired as part of the Jamison Acquisition.

Consolidated net income was $7.5 million. Net income attributable to Silvercrest was $3.7 million, or $0.47 per basic and diluted share for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. Our Adjusted Net Income1 was $7.2 million, or $0.56 per adjusted basic share and $0.53 per adjusted diluted share3 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016.

Adjusted EBITDA1 was $16.6 million or 28.0% of revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to $16.1 million or 28.8% of revenue for the same period in the prior year.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash and cash equivalents were approximately $30.0 million at September 30, 2016, compared to $31.6 million at December 31, 2015. Silvercrest L.P. had notes payable of $2.6 million at September 30, 2015 and $4.5 million at December 31, 2015. As of September 30, 2016, no amount had been drawn down on our term loan and there was nothing outstanding on our revolving credit facility with City National Bank.

Total stockholders' equity was $47.0 million at September 30, 2016. We had 8,049,025 million shares of Class A common stock outstanding and 4,891,475 million shares of Class B common stock outstanding at September 30, 2016.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To provide investors with additional insight, promote transparency and allow for a more comprehensive understanding of the information used by management in its financial and operational decision-making, we supplement our consolidated financial statements presented on a basis consistent with GAAP with Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted Net Income, and Adjusted Earnings Per Share which are non-GAAP financial measures of earnings. These adjustments, and the non-GAAP financial measures that are derived from them, provide supplemental information to analyze our operations between periods and over time. Investors should consider our non-GAAP financial measures in addition to, and not as a substitute for, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.

EBITDA represents net income before provision for income taxes, interest income, interest expense, depreciation and amortization.

We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA without giving effect to the Delaware franchise tax, professional fees associated with acquisitions or financing transactions, gains on extinguishment of debt or other obligations related to acquisitions, impairment charges and losses on disposals or abandonment of assets and leaseholds, client reimbursements and fund redemption costs, severance and other similar expenses. We feel that it is important to management and investors to supplement our consolidated financial statements presented on a GAAP basis with Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure of earnings, as this measure provides a perspective of recurring earnings of the Company.

Adjusted EBITDA Margin is calculated by dividing Adjusted EBITDA by total revenue.

Adjusted Net Income represents recurring net income without giving effect to professional fees associated with acquisitions or financing transactions, losses on forgiveness of notes receivable from our principals, gains on extinguishment of debt or other obligations related to acquisitions, impairment charges and losses on disposals or abandonment of assets and leaseholds, client reimbursements and fund redemption costs, severance and other similar expenses. Furthermore, Adjusted Net Income includes income tax expense assuming a corporate rate of 40%.

Adjusted Earnings Per Share represents Adjusted Net Income divided by the actual Class A and Class B shares outstanding as of the end of the reporting period for basic Adjusted Earnings Per Share, and to the extent dilutive, we add unvested deferred equity units, restricted stock units and performance units to the total shares outstanding to compute diluted Adjusted Earnings Per Share. As a result of our structure, which includes a non-controlling interest, we feel that it is important to management and investors to supplement our consolidated financial statements presented on a GAAP basis with Adjusted Earnings Per Share, a non-GAAP financial measure of earnings, as this measure provides a perspective of recurring earnings per share of the Company as a whole as opposed to being limited to our Class A common stock.

(c) For the three months ended September 30, 2016, represents costs associated with the upgrade of our telephone system of $16, professional fees related to a mock compliance audit of $61 and a true up adjustment of $223 to our tax receivable agreement. For the nine months ended September 30, 2016, represents costs associated with the upgrade of our telephone system of $60, costs related to the implementation of software of $13, a sign on bonus of $261 paid to a new employee, professional fees related to a mock compliance audit of $78 and a true up adjustment of $123 to our tax receivable agreement. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, represents professional fees of $57 related to the initial award agreements of restricted stock unit grants and a true-up adjustment to our tax receivable agreement of $(990). The adjustment in fair value is the result in a reduction in future effective corporate tax rate in New York City as a result of a law change. The reduction in the future effective corporate tax rate will result in less tax benefits being recognized by the Company from future amortization reducing its liability pursuant to the tax receivable agreement.
